Some bozo in a pickup ahead of me stopped AFTER going through that. Forcing
me to put my feet down in it.

Normally, my stitch is a fine rain suit, but not this time. I think it was
simply holding IN all of the water. But I don't think any rain suit would
have worked it that deluge. Of course the last two hours of the trip was in
hot Georgia sun making it a real steam bath.

Had a great time, thanks Dave.
